Fit for life

[belly_dancer]

ok.... I have been inspired.... by sstacy.... (& miss shimmy asking... what are your dance (fitness) goals today.. glad you are better by the way... but take it easy! (yeah right,... I have kids too... never a dull moment!!!))..
so MY dance goal for the day will be to practice for ONE WHOLE HOUR.... I never get to actually practice my own stuff anymore.... don't know how I will fit it in... as day is 1/2 over....(& work, kids, the man, all the usual EXCUSES!... ) but that is why it is a GOAL!!!!
a question.... how do YOU fit it all in Miss SHimmy (& others??)
AND who else will commit to the sstacy hour of daily dance????

I hope you are not developing alergies Moon, they are absolutly no fun.

 

[sstacy123]

No unfortunately there is not any place close by to get groceries...I live outside the city. Someone visiting from a neighboring state once called it an Andy Griffith town:lol: I am definately not a morning person but if there was a place I'd probably give it a shot...Numerous times I have planned on getting up in the morning before work and going to the gym...I think I can count the times I actually made it on one hand...

Well after I said I went everyday I didn't make it to practice today...was feeling very tired and bad headache but I've really be enjoying my practice time lately and would like to practice even more! Yeah without that pesky boyfriend I should have more time...Class is tomorrow.

Yeah we've been together about 2 years now...both of my birthdays we ended up in a fight, and last Val day I had school and we didn't see each other...argh. Although he had given me an early Val gift.

 

[belly_dancer]

yes sstacy..... use the time (while boy is being a dork!) to do stuff YOU want to do!!!! I did not get to fulfill my sstacy goal of dancing 1 hr.... grrrr.. life got in the way.... better get a LITTLE practice in today though... am dancing to a new song tonite!

Thanks for the compliments about my avatar ladies It's quite an old picture though, only 19 years old there hahah!
I'm feeling better now. Stayed in bed and watched tv almost all day yesterday. Didn't feel like eating at all. Today is much better

Sorry to hear your sons are ill now miss Shimmy. I hope they'll be well again soon. I also hate it when I can't breath through my nose...

Stacy, great you bought fruits and veggies! :clap:
I don't eat seasons fruits and veggies myself (Though some fruits are just not for sale in winter so I have to). I don't really like winter veggies. So boring and so.. winter-like. I need stuff that reminds me of summer once in a while, otherwise it's so depressing .

 

[sstacy123]

Wow and the plan is free...I once paid...I don't remember how much it was now, but a nice little sum to get a diet plan online...I'll have to look closer at it and I'm sure you'll let us know how it goes.

Ooh I had a sewing book and I think it tells you how to take measurements so I'll try to do that either tonight or tomorrow.

Today we're going out to eat to celebrate my cousin' s birthday...buffet...Ugh too much food...

 

[miss_shimmy]

hiya girls

well first day on this sparkpeople eating plan is just wonderful.i am enjoying it.
yey!!

stacy,you are sounding much brighter,enjoy yourself at your cousins birthday too.

moon,good one for taking care of yourself,you can always puyt your oils in a steamy bowl or bath too.

thankx for the well wishes for the boys,thankfully they aren't as knocked out as i was,being ill sucks.they are in the bedroom,getting pampered,watching all their fave movies

i have alott of energy today,though still going easy,last night was a good nights sleep,and all of us slept late this morning,with no disturbances..yey!

so goals for today have been achieved.i am now gradually catching up on work,housework and such,just filled my mp3 player up with my fave bellydancing tracks

[Venefica]

Well wishes to eeryone that is sick. I hope you all get better soon.

Did your rattis like yogurt whit pear Miss Shimmy? All of them is different and what one like not everyone else will like.

 

[miss_shimmy]

hiya venefica,how are you doing?

i havnt tried my litrtle ratti guy with the pear and yoghurt yet,i can later when hubby brings shopping home,i think he will love it,he is the type of ratti to eat anything tasty,my last 2 rats,they were brothers,they were very fussy eaters.
but this little guy,he loves his home,loves his food.he had a bad start to life,he only has half of his top lip as he was attacked by the other rats.he is very settled with us now.he is very cute and handsome.

my waist is down from 36 to a 34-feels great to be comfy in my jeans.

love and light

[sstacy123]

I had a real bad day Friday but the rest of the weekend I felt good. It's always easier to feel good when I'm not at work though!

Just having some water and a banana and will have some cereal in just a moment. I am going to do well today!

 

[Venefica]

Miss Shimmy, i am doing well thank you, though it is a bit of a slow day now. Most of the 8 rats eat anything, thouhg little Loki is a little bit reserved. he is so cute, he even have a bit of hanging ears, like if they never propary pointed up on his head, makes him look like a real tiny dog sort of.

stacy, how are you doing, i hope you are doing well. Yes somtimes stressing work days can be hard.

 

[sstacy123]

I'm doing well Venefica, thank you. I just need to find more time to sqeeze more practice in...trying to learn a choreography.

Maybe I'm not meant to me measured...so like I said I'd finally found my tape measure out in the trunk but I remembered there was one in my mother's sewing kit also so I never got mine out of the trunk...so this morning I was going to measure myself and guess what...my mother's tape measure is not there...eh...

Oh, I had NO sodas yesterday...just water! So far none today.

 

[Babylonia]

Very good not drinking soda. I'm addicted to diet Pepsi. I give it up for a couple of days then I always relapse. I've been drinking caffiene free for a few years now so it's not that . I sometimes think it's the bubbles. Maybe I should try Perrier or something like that.

 

[Moon]

Cola just tastes too delicious, it's unbelievable (especially vanilla coca cola, omg). I used to drink a glass every night, but not anymore. I just buy a bottle sometimes now.

 

[belly_dancer]

hey Sstacy... regarding soda...think about your teeth .... if you drop a tooth in a bottle of soda... it will disolve overrnight!!!!! eeeekkkkk
try & think about THAT every time you want a soda (& what is it dissolving on the INSIDE of us??)
